. . . given to me by all of my kids, written by James. I think it's worth sharing!!!

On this day dedicated solely to you,I have no gift that is the perfect match.Nothing I can purchase, make or doWill be able to fathom or unlatchThe effort you take to try to teachThose who stubbornly refuse to learn.No ordinary love could create the patience to reachYour own blood, your words which they scorn.So as a feeble, sorry tryThis gift we give to thy.Go on a date.Stay out late.We'll get the little ones in bed.We'll sweep up every crumb of bread.We love you tons, Mom.

About Me

First, I love Jesus and am so thankful that he is my Savior!! I am married to my amazing husband, Brent, and have three handsome sons and a beautiful daughter. We have planted a church in Bakersfield, California, and our prayer is that people will see Jesus in us and want to know more about him. I also work as a social worker for Pathway Family Services.

Romans 5:2b-5

And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, becuse we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.
